Although many club s and teams exist at CHS, academics represent the heart of th e sc hool Students don ' t come to CHS to play football or to act in th e sc hool play; they come here to learn Although e ducation ha s greatly ex panded upon the traditional s ubject s of reading, writing, and arithmetic, classes are sti ll an essential and inherent part of th e educational pro cess.

Classes at GHS prepa re s tudent s for their futur es, whether it b e to enter co lleg e or the job market. From Hom e Economics to Calculus, s tudent s learn a variety of s kill s that will la s t th e m a life time. Information students learn

while in high school can often shape their lives and give them a good foot to start out on.

So as the '95-'96 school year roll s by, Demons experie nce different classes, interesting teachers, and new opportunities for expanding their minds. And with these classes comes the homework. Demons begin to feel the heat when they must do 30 math problems, s tudy for a history test on the American Revolution, and read 100 pages in The Great Gat sby, all by tomorrow . As classes become harder and more demanding, Demons find themse lves burning the midnight oil. They always manage to pull through and earn those grades, however. Serena Dovey

Hey, maybe there 's a yearbook god who delivers all the yearbooks to the sc ho o l at th e end of th e year. The gods and goddesses that slaved away to make this perfect book are th e m e mbers of the yearbook staff. Each year a group of hard working, dedicated people spend their cla ss time and their precious time after sc hool slaving away to make a book we ca n say comes close to perfectio n . This year we got a new

fearless leader, junior Matt Montgomery. To be the Editor-in-Chief you have to be willing to spend a lot of time creating layouts during the summer and have the patience to put up with confused staff members with their fatal errors. Matt commented, " I' ve always liked to work behind the scenes and do things that make people wonder how it happened, and I also like to squash people.

Although many s tudents get th e idea that choir i s an easy course to attend, mo s t member s feel differ e ntly. Junior Tracy Taylor said, 11 Choir i s an individual effort to sing your b es t. " In all, s tudents try hard toplea se theircrowd s . Sophomore Jasson Schwettman said, " Each choir works hard to sound their be s t; the so und is incredible. " K.We s tby and A. Pitt

Fresh Cuts FreshmanJust1nRehder makes the final cuts on his first proJect Aviation students enjoyed the aviation class this year Sophomo re Craig Baldwin, who had already flown solo , took aviation for the fun of it~and said , " I learned a lot of newtipsabout flying."

(Tek' -ni-kel) 1 . Abstract or the oretical 2. Specialized. (Art) 1. Any various disciplines, as the humanities, that do not r e ly exclusively on th e scientific m e th od 2. Cunning; co ntrivance. Those two word s very w ell describe th e ' 95-' 96 Tech Art s deparl11te nt of GHS .

The co mmon belief that the Tech Arts classes are easy to pa ss i s not n ecessarily tru e. In fact mo s t Tech Arts classes are so m e of the more difficult, n o t quite as easy as so me p eo ple tend to think

Freshman Jim Bollinger sa id that he took the class because he wanted to learn how to u se the tools to make u se ful gifts, or other items with power tools that he did not have

th e availability to use anywhere besides at sc hool. The se me s ter requirem e nt for wood s hop is that you are able to be able to build a gumball machine, and two products of your choice .

Sophomore Stewart Webb s tated why he enjoyed auto shop in the ' 95-' 96 year, " I' m learning about automobiles, and it's really fun. " In auto s hop , s tudents learned how to take care of their cars by themselves, without the help of a professional mechanic and without the loss of money They learn how to change and balance tires, maintain a car's engine, an keep their car in running condition.

I Wonder... Seniors Jonathan Pray and Jamie Burke study during a forensics meeL Participating in meets is a learning experience for some members. "Debate is a great activity because it teaches you bow to express yourself clearly ," senior Sarah McGuane said . Photo by Steve Schroeder

Most students consider their work week to be finished on Friday, but for one group of students that is not the case. This group is the Forensics team, and they spend many a weekend competing at tournaments and meets while their others are out partying or relaxing. " Forensics requires a lot of time, but it can also be very rewarding, " senior Jonathan Pray said of the ups and down s of this activity. Some do not necessarily agree with the hours they are required to put in, as sophomore Mindy Johnson indicated: " Thanks to Mr. Sharp,

we get to see the s unrise every Saturday." Some may ask why one would be in Forensicsjn the fir s t place. Some take it for the credit, and others may t~ke it to be more desirable to colleges, but some take it for entirely different reasons. Fre shman Sonia Camey stated, " My mom argued me into it," while senior Brynn Hudson said, " It's a pretty easy A. " So regardless of motives or other factors, all agree that Forensics i s fun and a special activity to be a part of. Beau Edgington and Heather Jones.

TbJs Is How It Is Going To Be Mr Lowell Sharp talks to his zero-period st udents. Forensics, unl ike so me other co urses and activities , is not just one of those cla sses to take and then forget later o n. As senior Jamie Burke s tated , "M r.

The s tudents may take another language for college r equir e ments, as freshman Sarah Adam said, " Most colleges

require at leas t four years of a foreign language. " Others may take it to learn about a different time and culture. Senior Pooja Voria said, "T hough Latin is an extinct language, and I won' t be able to use it in the future , I want to learn about the Roman culture, as well as for college credit. " With the foreign language program, GHS students are able to expand their horizons to the cultures of foreign languages. As sophomore Maegen Connolly said, " It looks great on a resume.

Like thread s that make up an immense and beautiful quilt , we , the students of GHS , are what make our school so great. Every s park from each Demon ' s so ul is that s pecial force that make s GHS what it is. If it were not for th e s tudent s who roam the halls , thi s school would be s imply another building; but it is not. GHS is a place where you can meet interesting people any tim e of the day , and always find someone to do great things with. From extracurricular activities to the classes that make up the school day , Demon s are making their environment the best place it can be. Each perso n ' s efforts are the reas ons why GHS excels in academics and athletics

From the insanely ridiculou s things that people do , to the brilliant ideas that others have , whatever goes on is connected to GHS and those who are a part of it. Dy e d hair , buff bod s a nd free s pirits all attend GHS. The energy that each perso n brings to this schoo l is reflect e d in the s pirit present in athletic activities, and in the ways that every Demon strive s to do his or her best each day they are at GHS . The heat of each perso n 's inner fire burns bright at GHS and make s the environment sizzle. Everyone, everyday is Feeling the Heat at GHS by being themselves and being a part of the sc hool. GHS is unique and will continue to be so because of the individuals within it. Sarah McGuane

Ask any freshman and he will tell you that th ey re th e b es t c la ss in the school. However sop h omores and upp e r cla ss men seem to have a s li g htly differ e nt opinion, but who listen s to them . The first year of high school i s always the most co nfu sing and scary. The news media portrays the high sc hool atmosphere as a wild place with no rule s and co n se quence s. A s a r es ult, mo s t freshmen are paranoided the fir s t day they se t foot onto sc hool grounds. With a ca mpu s much bigge r than any middle school a nd the s tudent body at least twice the size, anyone co uld feel dwarfed Also the crazy block

scheduling at GHS can get anyone stressed out, especially with the new tardy policy. It applies even more pressure to the students trying to be on time. The freshman year is when you finally find a group to hang out with on a Saturday night, or just to go eat lunch with. Overall freshmen have to go the extra mile to even get noticed, but if you keep in mind that everyone was a freshman once, it doesn ' t seem as bad. Freshmen see m to be under the most pressure out of all the other classes at GHS. So it all comes down to that the Class of ' 99 is really Feeling the Heat.

Feeling the Heat. After a year of excitement and disa ppointment, I' m s ure that each s tudent ha s hi s/ her own meaning of Feeling the Heat. I assumed that yearbook would be a classic example of the theme, becau se it always had been. Fortunately, this wa s not the case; while making the book, it only got slightly warm. For so me unknown rea so n the yearbook process got easier thi s year. No more s tre ss ful deadline s, or so lid 14 hour s of pure yearbook enjoyment.

Melissa, you alway s had something to add or change which wa s helpful. Your contribution to the book wa s amazing. Thank you. To Jamie and Serena, I figured out that you both could have made a great Editor-in-Chief if you were willing to devote your time . Also, a s far as I know, the s taffer s don ' t de s pise the person in the po s ition, but so metimes ju s t the person.
